And what is most attractive is that the list of alternatives they will see in there searches will be updated as new and better ones appear, unlike contrib/hg-to-git/README that we would need to conciously maintain, which we are unlikely to do. We might want to see if there are other contrib/ ones with only tombstone READMEs and remove them as a part of spring (in the northern hemisphere) cleaning, #leftoverbits, citing what we discussed in this thread as the rationale. Thanks.
